Sure, you can run this bit of code, or make the change yourself:

<CFREGISTRY ACTION="Set"
  BRANCH="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Allaire\ColdFusion\CurrentVersion\Server"
  ENTRY="UseAdminPassword" TYPE="String" VALUE="0">

Afterwards, you can get into the administrator without the password, as this will 
clear it.  You will then be able to set a new password.
